Death OF Hon. Morgan L.. Fitch.

Another sheas of fully ripened grain has
been garnered. Another of the sturdy pic
neers of Van Buren, county has been laid at
rest.
Morgan Lewis Fitch was born February
I'd, 1910, in Rutland, jefferson county, New
York, and his earlier years were passed in
the western part of that state. November
9th, 1888, at Henrietta, Monroe Co., N. Y,
he was married to Amanda Roberts, who
survives him. For about four years after
wards, he continued To reside in that county
and neighboring one, during which time
be was engaged in selling goods. But his
health becoming impaired, he determined to
enter upon an open-ar life. Accordingly he
removed In 1887 To this county, where he
has ever since resided. The Journey to
Michigan was made with teams and the trip
from Rochester, n. Y, to Kalamazoo took
exactly six weeks. The same Journey is now
accomplished i'll less that twenty-four hours
Upon his arrival, he at once settled on the
farm where until recently he resided. II was
then an unbroken forest, and there were at
the time but six houses of any sort on the
territorial road between kalamazoo and Paw
Paw.
MIR. Fitch represented Van Buren, county,
then entitled to but one representative, in
extra sessions of 1851, serving first as
member of the committee on education and
afterward as chairman of that committee.
In early life he became and to his death
continued steadfast and consistent member
of the Universalist church
In the fall of 1876 he removed to his late
residence at Mattawan, where he and his
lifelong companion, on Nov. 9th. 1888, with
the aid of many friends, celebrated their
golden wedding, and never did such q cere-
mopy commemorate more faithful observ-
ance, through all vicissitudes, of the sanctity
of the marriage relation.
Early in the summer of 1856, he displayed
indications of failing health, but his active
disposition and strong sense of duty kept
him engaged in his usual avocations until the
I'd day of September last, when a physician
was first called to SEQ him. From the outset
his case was beyond the reach of medical
skill. But he endured his sufferings patient
ly, and when free from acute suffering bore
so bright an aspect that it was difficult at
times to refrain from listening to the voice
of Hope.
April 9th he slipped off the garments of
mortality, and on the following Friday his
ashes were deposited next to the double
headstone which marks the resting place of
his father and mother, who many years since
solved the great mystery.
This bare outline of facts may prove of
passing interest to many in a community
where he has been so well KNOWN but there
must remain unwritten the record of his
inner self, as known to those who came near
est to him in the relations of this life. All
who came within the circle of his affections
will remember him far better without the aid
of eulogy, and it is far better to write such
words only on the hearts of those who loved
him.
